Model & Market Context
The airframe bearing tail number N100AR is a 2002-built Cessna 560XL Citation Excel with serial number 560-5241. It is owned by INDEPENDENCE AIRCRAFT INC, a corporation based in Manchester, NH, US, and is registered in the US. The airframe’s registry record lists a total of 13 seats despite the aircraft’s common executive mid‑cabin fit typically accommodating seven to nine executive seats; valuation records indicate an estimated market value of $4,150,000. No further registry actions or operator changes are published beyond the listed ownership and registration.
The airframe carries an executive mid‑cabin layout typical of the Excel series, normally fitted with 7–9 executive seats though the registration record for N100AR lists 13 seats, indicating either an alternate interior configuration or a full certified seating arrangement. Factory‑installed Honeywell avionics, typical for the Excel series, provide the baseline avionics suite for this aircraft. Mission profiles for this airframe align with short‑to‑medium haul business and charter operations within the aircraft’s 1,839 nm range and 433 kt cruise speed, operating from the owner’s base in Manchester, NH, US. Maintenance considerations for this specific airframe would follow standard Pratt & Whitney PW545A engine programs and Citation Excel structural checks consistent with a 2002 build year.
The Cessna 560XL Citation Excel occupies the midsize business jet niche, offering transcontinental capability for many regional missions with a 45,000 ft ceiling and executive cabin flexibility. Competing models in its class typically include other midsize jets offering similar speed and range; buyers and charter operators value the Excel for its balanced operating costs and cabin utility. Resale and maintenance considerations for this airframe reflect its 2002 manufacture date, the PW545A engine type, and the reported 13‑seat configuration, all factors that affect configuration desirability and market pricing around the stated $4,150,000 valuation.
